I just don't understand what caused the toxic avenger and this to get Saturday morning cartoons. Trying to capture TMNT's lightning in a bottle I guess.

Yes. This.

Being born in the 80's means you got pop culture the wrong way around because all the good shit already happened. From the point of view of a 1985 baby, Star Wars has always been there in exactly the same way as Sherlock Holmes: Long enough for people to make children's media loosely based on it.

So, there's a bunch of us who, when you mention Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, they see a Saturday morning cartoon with talking tomatoes rather than the Sharknado of the 1970's.
